IMPORTANT FEEDING INFORMATION
PROTEIN
Amino acids are the building blocks vital for muscle
growth, tissue repair, cell and organ regeneration.
They include lysine which helps improve muscle mass
and methionine for paw and skin health. Proteins also
support the immune and musculoskeletal systems.
CARBOHYDRATES
Glycogen is the principal store of energy derived from
carbohydrates, delivering fuel for growth and work.
Blended carbohydrate sources provide constant energy
for burst and endurance activities, which helps reduce
muscle fatigue and ensures high performance.
• Suggested feed rates are guidelines only. The amount of food required
will depend on what additional foods are included your dog’s diet, its
stage of growth, exercise intensity and metabolism.
• For gestating or lactating dogs we suggest feeding CopRice Working
Dog Puppy which has nutrition better suited to provide the nourishment
required for these life stages. See CopRice Working Dog Puppy for
feeding guidelines.
• Monitor the weight and body condition of your dog to establish if less or
more food is required for optimum wellbeing. Adjust the feed quantities
in the table above by up to a maximum of 20% higher or lower.
• Ensure your dog always has access to clean, cool and fresh water.
FEED TRANSITION GUIDE
When changing feeds it is important to do so gradually. To ensure
your dog adjusts to different tastes and textures, we recommend a
10 day transition, as shown below.
Current Dog Food
FAT
Fat is the primary source of slow release energy needed
for speed and stamina. Omega 3, 6 essential fatty acids
and omega 9 support brain development and improve
skin and coat condition.
FIBRE
Yucca is a prebiotic fibre which provides nourishment
for the growth of good gut bacteria. Fibre aids digestion
to ease toileting and assist intestinal and colon health.
ELECTROLYTES
Electrolytes stimulate muscles and nerves which helps
reduce tissue fatigue. They also assist fluid retention,
aiding mental alertness and regulating body functions.
VITAMINS
Vitamin E aids immunity and helps keep the heart in peak
condition. B-group vitamins promote metabolism and
energy production. Vitamin A supports eye wellbeing.
